Harlequin birdhouse

18 years ago

I grouted this yesterday, used grey and hope it is dark enough. I could still do a black wash on it if it needs it. I just don't know..

    Gosh, Flag, you are busy! Love that birdhouse! I really like your color choices.

    Flag I really like the birdhouse but definetly think it needs a black wash on the grout to make those colors pop and really show off those beautiful colors you have chosen!!

    I LOVE YOUR BIRDHOUSE...AND THE OTHER ONE I PEEKED AT TOO..Can you put these outside? If I was a bird, I'd be making a nest NOW! Really eye candy..love all the embellishments you use..........my kind of mosaics!!!

    OH Flag... you sure are in a COLORFUL mood lately! It's delicious! I agree with Chickee, the grey is trying to soften and blend everything.

    Golly gee... a birdhouse with a mother-in-law suite! Cute!!! :) Those colors are GREAT!
    I love looking at your work, Flag.... bright colors... and fun things to see in the way you place the cup handles, etc.
    What are the 'lines' made from? The thin pieces of pottery lining the frame?
    That box is beautiful, too!

    Thanks to all of you for the nice comments...
    CHICKEEMAMA & NICETHYME: I will do the darker wash...good idea. I will try that tonight or in am. Thanks for the suggestion
    ST JOHN'S; I seal these real good (3 coats) of TileLab sealer and I haven't had any problems with them yet. If the one's I have out make this winter, I will put these out too.
    FIDDLEKATE: The lines and corners are some tile pieces I found at a garage sale, They appear to be like what you would see in a bathroom tile, just a line of color. I have a lot of them. They are neat for outlining.
    I guess I am not a shabby chic kind of gal. I like the roses,etc, but LOVE color, so I don't have many tiles or plates to work with that aren't pretty colorful. I guess I don't really know how to work without color. Maybe I could learn, but don't think I want to at this time. I really think that the colors make me happy....I have them all around me, in the studio, in the yard and in the house.

    WOW and WOW! LOVE the colors! It's really an amazing birdhouse...if I were a bird, I would move right in and never move out!

    Very, very nice, even better with darker grout :).
    I'd say it's a duplex.
